D Speedy Gonzales (Speedy Gonzales) E How come you leave me all alone? (Hey, Rosita! I have to go shopping downtown for my mother. She needs some tortillas and chili peppers!) La la la... Verse 2: A Your dog is gonna have a puppy F#m And we're runnin' out of Coke D No enchiladas in the icebox E7 And the television's broke A I saw some lipstick on your sweatshirt F#m I smell some perfume in your ear D Well, if you're gonna keep a-messin' E7 Don't bring your business back-a here (chorus) (Hey, Rosita, come quick! Down at the Cantina they're giving green stamps with tequila!) (repeat "la la la..." and fade)
